80 GB Classic. Went into "Notes Instructions" and it started clicking

I just bought it and I was playing around with it. I decided to go into the Extras and look at the Notes. There was a file named "Instructions" so I decided to read it. As soon as I clicked it, the iPod started to lag and something inside started clicking at me. I assumed it was the hard drive, but the noise was weird and it made me somewhat nervous. Does this happen with anyone else's? Should I be worried about this at all?

I'm bothered by the clicking noise too. After I filled my iPod classic, I just tried coverflow without earphone. I turned the wheel quickly and released then I heard that click that is loud enough to notice. It's like the actuator arm in the hard drive hits something after reading data. I hear that click 3-10sec after I played a song (when I'm not pluging my ears with earphone).
I went to an apple store to know if displayed iPod makes same noise. But the store was so crowded and loud. I couldn't hear click even if I got the iPod close to my ear. Maybe it was too loud in the store to make an apple rep to notice the problem of mine.
I don't know what to do with it. I got an engraving so I can't just return it. I think this is abnormal. But want to know if all iPod classic makes this click noise.

    Thank you for your response, Chris. But I'm afraid I have to disagree. There are native 64 bit versions of iTunes available for OSX and Windows.
    In a 64 Bit Windows environment native 64 Bit Applications install the DLL's in a directory called "Program Files" and a directory called "Program Files (x86)" (32 Bit applications only use the ladder).
    iTunes 9 is consistent with this behavior - and it identified itself to the system as a 64 bit application (meaning it's process appears without a "*32" tag on it).

    I assume you have iTunes Match turned on in iTunes?
    You can create a smart playlist in iTunes that has "iCloud Status" is "Matched" or "Upload" - that will tell you what's in the cloud.

  • HT4623 I would like to update my ipad so I went into setting, general  and under general it does not have soft ware update - what should I do?

    I am trying to update my ipad, so I went into settings, general and looked for soft ware update and it is not there.  So where should I go to update my ipad?

    you only update over the air (on your ipad directly) if you have iOS 5 or later, and your profile says you've got 4.3.5
    you need to update by plugging your ipad into your computer that has itunes on it

  • In trying to transfer iWeb pages (not uploaded) to another computer I went into the library and transferred the domain onto the desktop. Disaster! On opening iWeb all previous (uploaded) sites have disappeared. Help!

    In trying to transfer iWeb pages (not uploaded) to another computer I went into the Library and transferred the domain onto the desktop. Disaster! On opening iWeb all previous (uploaded) sites have disappeared. On opening the domain all I can recover is the many component parts, and when unzipped the code. Help! Mike

    Code in a domain file - really?  That is not possible because the domain.sites file does not contain any html or css code at all - the domain file is your iWeb data file and you won't see any code until you publish your website.
    If you can see html code, then you have the wrong file and it is a published version of your site which iWeb can do nothing with - iWeb has no import facility so cannot open any html files.
    Go back and ensure that you have the correct domain.sites files that can be found under your User Library/Application Support/iWeb/domain.sites and if you have Mavericks then you need to go to Go and press the alt key to reveal your hidden User Library, so that you can then get to Application Support and then iWeb and then your domain.sites file.
    You will also need to go and download either DomainCracker or iWebSwitch which allows you to open individual domain files under Mavericks, because from Lion onwards, you cannot open individual domain files.
    Also, it says that you are still using iWeb 08?  If this is so, you'll either need to upgrade to iWeb 09 by going to Amazon and purchasing the iLife 09 or 11 boxed set, both of which contain iWeb 09 or you need to switch to newer software that is actively being supported and developed such as EverWeb (http://www.everwebapp.com).

    I'm sorry to learn that you are not able to make/receive calls chelseabee! (ticket number removed) results indicate that there is no issues with the network or account provisioning. Since you have already done a hard reset http://vz.to/1gBkSJc (as per your post), I recommend exploring replacement options. If your phone is within the one year manufacturers' warranty we can provide a Certified Like New replacement http://vz.to/uyYF0o as long as no physical/liquid damage exist. If your phone has sustained physical/water damage and you have insurance, you can submit a claim to the insurance company online at this link http://bit.ly/07CrqPK

    Hi jennys8380407,
    Can you please elaborate on what you mean by "unable to obtain a receipt"? Are you not able to see the invoices for your payments? Or are you unable to print them? It sounds like you have followed the steps outlined here: Print a payment receipt or invoice | Creative Cloud--can you tell me what you do see when you look at the subscriptions listed on your account?
    Best,

  • Are my photos completely gone if i went into disk utility and clicked erase, or can i recover them?

    i wanted to put my macbook pro back to factory settings and re installl the disk. so i went into disk utility and clicked erase, after that i realized i did not put my pictures on my external drive and now i'm wonder even though i pushed erase in disk utility for my HD are my photos just gone off my computer and hidden in files that i have to recover. because i tried a few softwares that i downloaded and i found some of my photos but couldnt get them cause the software was a demo.
    main question is even though i clicked erase HD and my pictures aren't on when i re install the mac DVD can i still recover them somehow??

    I'm assuming that you were booted from the Mac install disk or recovery partition when you clicked Erase? (It's impossible to erase a disk you're booted from, at least using Disk Utility).
    Do you have a backup of your computer, perhaps using Time Machine?
    If not, and you still want to recover your pictures, first, STOP. Do not re-install Mac OS X. Installing the system and applications will overwrite your hard drive and potentially permanently lose your deleted files.
    The only way you can retrieve your files is by using data recovery software such as Data Rescue. No, it's not cheap, but you have to decide what your photos are worth to you. You would need to run it from another Mac, ideally, and connect to your Mac using target mode.
    If you're uncomfortable with that, you should seek a local reputable Mac/data recovery consultant.
    The utility kaz-k points you to is not a solution to your problem. It's an Unerase Trash program.

  • I recently got IOS 8 and I like it but there is one problem on my camera roll it says i have 600 photos but i went into setting general and about and it says i have 2,743 photos my photos keep on duplicating how do i get this to stop.

    Hi Bpaitin,
    Go to Settings>General>Usage, and under iCloud, click on Manage Storage>click on your device, then under Backup Options, turn Photo Library off and then back on. See if that clears it up.
    If it does not, reset your device (nothing will be lost): Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). Once the Slide to Unlock screen redisplays, see if the issue is resolved.

  • I went into about:config and there is no conduit in there but I know it is because it is in my startup

    I am going nuts with this damn conduit malware. I have tried everything. This morning when I got up it seemed as though my whole computer crashed. It wouldn't even go on. I unplugged a couple of plugs for a while, and lo and behold it came on. Whew!!
    I went into about:config and there was nothing in there with conduit. However, it is in my startup in MsConfig. And I know that is what is giving me so many problems. I did see something in there that I wanted to get out, but it wouldn't let me. How can I do that????

    Hello,
    That depends on which ones you use. HitmanPro has a trial period, so you can uninstall once you get rid of your problem (there is no permanent free version for it).
    However, [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free/ MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware] and [http://general-changelog-team.fr/en/downloads/viewdownload/20-outils-de-xplode/2-adwcleaner AdwCleaner] have free versions - you do not need to use the trial period/pay for those ones. For MalwareBytes, the last dialog box in the installation will ask you to start the Free Trial period of the Premium version, '''uncheck that box''' so that it remains as the free version. I think even if you choose to use the trial, you can revert back to the free version later.

  • I was in the process of jailbreaking and updating my ipod and when i was updating it,it went into recovery mode and now i cant get it out of recovery mode so what can i do??

    i was in the process of jailbreaking and updating my ipod and when i was updating it,it went into recovery mode and now i cant get it out of recovery mode so what can i do??

    Go elsewhere:
    Jailbreaking voids the Apple warranty and also means that you will not get any support from Apple, including from this Apple forum. Jailbreaking can't be discussed in this Apple forum.
    Unauthorized modification of iOS has been a major source of instability, disruption of services, and other issues
